On: Mihály Csíkszentmihályi has died

[yosito]

Csikszentmihalyi was Hungarian. I live in Hungary, and often work from a coffee shop called Flow with a Csikszentmihalyi quote on the wall, "Flow is being completely involved in an activity for its own sake. The ego falls away. Time flies. Every action, movement, and thought follows inevitably from the previous one, like playing jazz."

RIP

I love Flow, it's my favorite cafe to work from in Budapest. Can't wait to visit home so I can hang out there again.

Thanks for the recommendation! In pre-COVID times, I would visit Budapest a few times per year.

My coffee stops are usually Addicted2Caffeine on Bartok Bela, and Tamp & Pull, depending on which hotel I'm staying at.

There's also Barako Kavehaz, which serves an interesting Filipino coffee varietal called Liberica Barako.

I'm a regular visitor to Budapest (both parents were born there) and have added all of these to my list of things to include on my next trip.. whenever that may be (borders).

I really love visiting there. Hoping that I can get over there sometime soon!
